I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

Chapter 1869 - 1863: I Really Didn’t Mean To

"Nine Nether Sunset Art!"

"Afterglow Palm!"

"Luo River Divine Finger!"

...

Several members of the Shamate Clan launched an attack on the barrier enveloping the entire Xuanyun City. But even as they pushed the power of the Nine Nether Sunset Art to their respective limits, they still couldn’t break through it.

The attack, powerful enough to instantly kill a peak Divine Cultivation Realm martial artist, merely left a faint ripple, not even causing it to tremble.

"Don’t waste your energy. With your laughable strength, it’s impossible to break this formation!" The laughter of the City Lord of Xuanyun City echoed once more from the Black Tower, "This formation was set up by the earliest predecessors of the Divine Profound Hall. Even experts above Dao Realm Fifth-grade find it difficult to destroy it. Even if you exhaust all your power, don’t expect to break it!"

"While you still have a little time, you might as well eat and drink what you can, lest you blame me for being unkind after you die!" The City Lord of Xuanyun City grew more arrogant, "If you’d stayed obediently at the Sunset Sect, it might have been fine, but you came to Xuanyun City to court death. Did you really think the Divine Profound Hall is full of wine bags and food sacks?"

"And you!" His aura locked onto Zhang Menglong, "I know you’re wealthy and skilled, you must have hired people to kill the 50 elders sent by Divine Profound Hall, right? There are quite a few daredevils willing to kill people from the Divine Profound Hall in this world, but hardly any who dare attack our Hall directly!"

"Clan Leader, what do we do? We can’t get out!" The expressions of everyone became somewhat apprehensive. Their full-powered assaults had caused no damage whatsoever to the formation, and now even with Zhang Menglong’s intervention, it’s impossible to exert power above Dao Realm Fifth-grade.

According to their estimation, even if Zhang Menglong were abnormal, being on par with Dao Realm First-grade was already incredible enough, considering that, in essence, he is still just a First-grade Divine Cultivator.

They even began to wonder if it was a wise decision to rush in impulsively.

Facing the disciples of the Divine Profound Hall, they could wreak havoc, but as long as an elder steps in, they appear helpless unless their power reaches the peak of Divine Cultivation Realm. Only then could mastering the second level of Nine Nether Sunset Art enable them to maneuver among ordinary elders with ease.

"What to do? So we can’t get out, so be it. I wasn’t planning on leaving; isn’t this just perfect? He can’t escape either!" Zhang Menglong reassured.

"Even now you’re being stubborn. I don’t know whether to admire your courage or your smooth talking."

"Alas, someone as mundane as you will never understand my prowess. Do you think a mere turtle shell can stop me?" Zhang Menglong casually grasped, and a golden axe slowly took shape in his hand.

The axe was almost a gigantic axe, entirely gold-colored, with extravagant and ornate engravings on its surface, almost like a piece of fine art. Yet the ancient aura emanating from the axe was impossible to ignore; just one glance suggested that it could cleave both sky and earth.

"What kind of weapon is this?" Even the Xuanyun City Lord in the midst of breakthrough couldn’t help but show a slight emotional disturbance.

As an elder of the Divine Profound Hall, his knowledge was vast, this seemingly inconspicuous Black Tower was actually a top-level treasure, gifted to him for his special contribution to the Divine Profound Hall by the Hall Master.

Despite its unassuming appearance, aside from being incredibly sturdy, the Black Tower had numerous functions. It was the masterpiece of an artifact refiner from Divine Profound Hall, capable of enhancing the cultivation of Divine Profound Hall’s techniques and martial arts by more than threefold.

The tower could absorb massive amounts of energy, automatically refining and purifying it, and combined with Divine Profound Hall’s sea of energy, the cultivation efficiency soared. It could even simulate shadows of some predecessors from the Divine Profound Hall for sparring.

After having it for such a lengthy period, his understanding of this treasure was profound; there wouldn’t be more than ten treasures within the entire Divine Profound Hall superior to it.

The most impressive item he had ever encountered in Divine Profound Hall was a divine artifact wielded by the Hall Master, a staff covered in engravings. Its material and craftsmanship were unknown, but it was so heavy that nothing below Dao Realm could lift it, and a single strike was enough to shatter a continent!

He once endured a blow from the staff with the tower. The result was the tower getting hammered and dented. If not for the tower’s self-repair function, two more strikes would have seen it collapse entirely.

In this world, perhaps only sect leaders of other superpowers possessed treasures of such caliber.

But the axe in Zhang Menglong’s hand felt even more terrifying than the Hall Master’s staff; he had no confidence in enduring even a single cleave of it.

"What kind of axe is this? It looks so formidable, it’s even glowing!"

"I knew our Clan Leader was hiding something, and it’s not just a little bit either!"

"There’s a lot here, can I touch it? I promise I’ll return it after touching!"

"Your scheme is so loud I can hear it from the other side of the continent, will it even return once your hands touch it? When are you going to pay back those three Spiritual Medicine you owe me?"

...

With the giant axe in hand, Zhang Menglong’s muscles almost looked ready to burst. The original Pangu Axe, even now, Zhang Menglong could barely lift and couldn’t wield flexibly; all it could do was cleave such stationary objects.

However, it perfectly suited his current need!

Zhang Menglong raised the axe, and in that moment, the earth trembled, and along the trajectory of the axe, a pitch-black fissure appeared, tearing space apart. The chasm even started extending toward the distant sky.

"Crack!"

The ripple passed through the formation initiated by Xuanyun City Lord, directly shattering it with a web of cracks. With the second wave, the formation, which even Dao Realm Fifth-grade found difficult to destroy, collapsed completely!

"Just what kind of weapon is this?"

The Xuanyun City Lord was shocked and fearful; this power exceeded that of the Hall Master’s staff. Just lifting it, without even cleaving directly, two mere waves achieved something he deemed impossible.

"Taste my +13 Pangu Axe!"

Zhang Menglong unleashed all his strength, swinging the axe at the Black Tower.

An axe light traced a semicircle in the sky, instantly cutting through the Black Tower, as if it posed no obstruction at all.

The Black Tower began to shift along the cut surface, revealing the startled expression of the City Lord within. Unluckily for him, he was right under the trajectory of the axe, and the blow cleaved off one of his shoulders!

His eyes and mouth twitched, with the wounded shoulder bleeding profusely, yet he dared not move an inch, for it was a crucial moment.

"Oops," Zhang Menglong apologized, "Just a coincidence, I swear I didn’t mean it!"
